BBC Pathetic Coverage

According to this for pretty much the whole tournament the red button coverage will only be on between 10am and 1pm. Absolute joke and I am extremely disappointed. Lucky enough I have eurosport but for the causal viewer they will either have no choice of what match to watch or they will have to wait until 1120pm to watch an evening session.

:grrr:

Pretty much sums it up. I've seen this mentioned a few times on Twitter. I think everybody pretty much hopes it's a mistake.

I think the red button print is a mistake.

However, it looks like they have dropped their evening slot for the first week - not great, is it?

If it's on the red, I don't really care.

If it's not :grrr:

Yes Rishi you beast! Renewed my excitement for it now, shame I'll have A-Level revision in the way most of the time though :/

all the uk and masters matches were live on the red button every single shot so it would be stupid not to do the same for the biggest tournament of them all
